He couldn't help but watch her with utter silence. The so called Cold-Blooded King wanted to fall to his knees and beg her to be the queen he know he didn't deserve. Kronos wanted her to have his sons and his daughters this moment. Watching her take care of her siblings, caring the little Tatiana in her arms.

She shook her golden locks, that have seemed to have browned from the sun. "No, no we've never done that. I couldn't...let myself. It didn't feel right. We planned to do it," The King let out a growl but she continued. "After our wedding but that never happened." Kronos hummed looking Opalescent over. The bond between them had made that split between the old couple. Which Kronos was deeply thankful for, as selfish as he am. He wanted to be her first and her last.

"Well that's too bad isn't it?"The King smirked. She shook her head, gasping as wet arms threw themselves on her.

That night the kids had convinced Opalescent for them to camp out on the beach for the last day here. After four hours Opalescent had put them all to bed. She sat still next to the fire, her eyes closed as she listened to the waves crash into the rocks to the sides of us.

"Darling,"The brooding man whispered into her ear. As she tried to open her eyes Kronos shook his head, slipping behind Opal. "Stay just like that." The King rasped in her ear, pushing her hair back and resting his chin against her shoulder. Kronos looked to see her eyes were still shut.

"I don't want to go back, Kronos." She whimpered.

Kronos sighed, moving away from her. "You need to let what I've decided just to happen. Understand?" She nodded but her eyes didn't connect with his glowering eyes. "I'll wake you when it's time. Go to sleep." Kronos said, taking a stand. She looked up at the man who seemed never to get the pleads she lets escape, nodding her head.

She smiled at him anyway, the bright light of the pale moon reflecting on her spotted face. "Goodnight, King Kronos." She crawled into the tent.

"Do you have everything packed?" Kronos asked the children as he held onto their sister who was still asleep. They nodded their heads sleepily. "Alright, load up." Gesturing to the plane. They listened, only a few yawns and murmurs was heard as they dragged their feet on the steps to the jet.They loaded into the private jet. Kronos was ecstatic to be leaving from the island of mutts.

He could barely tolerate lycanthrope. The smell of one made his skin crawl.

He sat down, Opalescent curled to him. Her body in nirvana at the close contact with her mate. Kronos looked down at the women who he had cradled to his heavy arms. She was so small but something in her made him bow down to her. It was becoming harder and harder to fight the urge. She was his sun. He warmed his frost bitten skin. He felt the need to breathe again.

And every time he filled his lungs it was full of her intoxicating scent.

"Where are we going?" The littlest one asked. Her eyes looking at her older sister and back up to the abstruse man. She was sat up on Landon's lap. Flo in Lances. The King sighed, his fingers trailing a path he'd only touch across Opalescent's face.

"Somewhere. Someplace." That was good enough for Tatiana. She kept quiet until she realized the funny look the King was giving her sister.

"No eat Opal. Don't eat her." She stated in better grammar. Her eyebrows furrowing. Kronos peered up at her, lifting Opalescent closer to his lips, they gently touched the vital vein on her neck causing her to moan gently in her sleep.

"Don't tell me what to do." Kronos huffed, gently letting Opalescent back to her resting place. Landon and Lance let out a sigh, relaxing back in their seats.

"We are in lift off. We should be there in three hours and forty six minutes, my king." The Co-pilot gave the King what he was expecting to hear. The man gave his king a respectful solute and waited until he was waved away to go back to his station.

Opalescent woke to a rush of cold air. She winced, her sleep slowly drifting away from her. She sighed in content as she was placed somewhere warm. She twisted in the bed she was placed in. Opening her eyes into thin slits, Kronos came into view. "Stay asleep." He speaks gently to her. She shakes her head, trying to sit up. Kronos pushes her down by her face, causing a slight smile to his face. His small mate let out a whine, mumbling something under her breath.

She woke up hours later. She rubbed her eyes, slowly sitting up making the blanket that was draped over her body slide down to her lap.

She looked around, excitement filling her body as she realized she wasn't in the palace. She couldn't believe, he actually listened to me? She stopped her thoughts right there. She didn't want to push her luck. She pressed her feet against the freezing titled floor. She wiggles her toes as she shivered. Light poured into the windows from every angle in the room. She stood up and walked over to the biggest opening.

Her eyes widened and she let out a sharp breath as she looked down at the imagery that unfolded below her. It was beautiful. It seemed she was on top of a mountain, gushes of water flowing way down bellow.

Opal grabbed the blanket, wrapping it over her shoulders. She walked out of the bedroom, she was put in awe of her surroundings. She gasped as arms squeezed themselves around her tiny waist as they slithered around her. She looked to see Flo grinning up at her. "You finally woke up! It's almost lunchtime, sissy." Flo exaggerated, Tatiana and her had to be pulled and chained down in order for Opalescent to get her long needed rest. Kronos was set to make sure of it.

"Where's everyone?" Opalescent asked, her fingers gently combing through Flo's hair.

"Tatiana is taking a nap. The boys are getting something for the house and the King...I don't know." The young girl answered truthfully. Cuddling close to her sister. Opalescent hummed.

"We aren't in the kingdom?" Opalescent asked carefully, knowing he was watching. Flo shook her head, Opalescent bit her cheek. She smiled down at Flo, tapping her cheek causing the girl to let out a giggle. "You guys ate without me?" Opal pushed out her bottom lip, crouching down and rubbing her forehead against Flo's.

Flo laughed loudly, "Yes. But there's leftovers!" Opal rubbed her belly playfully, wiggling her eyebrows.

"Okay. Take me there please?" Flo grabbed her sisters hand and raced around the vila to the kitchen. It was different, which made Opal realize they weren't in the same country as the Kingdom either.

She kept her thoughts to herself. Soon Flo ran away to go adventure out some place which made Opalescent rush herself. It was a new place and she was anxious with it. She picked at the food, she was just about to push away the plate but someone stopped her. Her mate.

His red eyes stared into her golden ones. She gasped, "Kronos." His lips tilted in a smirk. "Why didn't you pop up earlier? When I actually felt you around." She muttered to herself, but he caught on to it.

"Because it seems like when I scare you it's the only time you'd be surprised to see me." He answered sarcastically. Opalescent looked up at him and shook her head.

"Where are we?" She asked him nicely, he stared at her before he answered. He'd never been too found of his exceptional sight but for looking into the eyes, face, and body of Opalescent he was. He clenched his jaw as he fumbled with her shirt, Opal grabbed his sneaky hands before he could rip her shirt. She unintentionally laced their fingers together. His red eyes darkened as he looked down at Opal. Her innocent eyes blinked at him, she gave him a smile.

"Nepal." He answered swiftly.
